Summary: | This study examines how the diverse strands of the British Left have interpreted the conflict in Palestine. From being overwhelmingly supportive of the Zionist movement's effort to build a Jewish state in Palestine and welcoming Israel's establishment the left, in the main, has become increasingly critical of Israel. The book examines the principal debates on the left over the Palestine/Israel conflict and the political realignment that they have helped to shape. |
